Description

Add /pdb:file option to vbc.exe to allow specifying a non-default pdb filename, and remove the special handling of non-default pdb filenames from the Vbc build task.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Inspect the existing command line parsing in vbc.exe and the Vbc build task to identify where non default pdb filenames are handled specially. Add a new /pdb:file option and clean up the special handling.
